I have always rolled over my 401k accounts when switching firms. It helps keep everything in the same place.

Roll it to an IRA. You have more freedom with what you can invest in versus your new employer's 401K.

You can always roll it to an IRA too. I didn’t have to pay anything when I was rolling over mine

No you don’t have to pay for a roll over and there are no tax implications either

Be careful cause if you use Fidelity there is a $50 fee they dont really mention when rolling from a 401k to an IRA. You should read the language on the website.

Hi, I was curious if anyone had any jobs or companies that had a position with a mix of consulting/healthcare/pharmaceutical. I currently work in clinical operations and research, and would love to jump or learn into a tech side company with pharmaceutical exposure. Not sure if these are out there but figured I’d see!

Dear All Fisbowls,

I have a query. Request all of yours suggestion and if you have done something similar to this please share.

You have resigned and have offer in hand suppose 15 fixed.
Meanwhile you get another offer but they will give around 17 fixed.
I am thinking to quote my in hand offer as 17 fixed with changes in it and share it with them.
So that they can give me around 20 fixed.
Request to share honest detail here.
